Hi All, I have european parents, and they are using a streaming box , at the front is "zge ma H2H", and has Open ATV on it. When they switch it on, it automatically goes ono to one of the many european channels (last one they were watching) that is in the main "bouquet". It does occasionally freeze.
Im sorry to ask you these - perhaps this isn't the right forum for these noob questions.
Is this set up what is known as IPTV? From other posts, I see other words bandied around ( Android / Sat/ Cable ) - I sometimes wonder if Open ATV is a flavour android, or is an application on Android which automatically starts.
So, regarding the occasional freezing: is the box of a low quality(cpu / ram) n, or is their (talktalk) broadband not up to scratch - perhaps a bit of both? Or maybe open ATV is not the best?
They are looking for another one for the sitting room. If I wanted to get exactly the same environment( open atv) . I've been reading stuff about firestick - can this be set up just like this ZGE box, and be as good, if not better? They are quite old, so it can't be anything fancy.
Thanks guys. Sorry if there's too many questions.
